EAGLE ONLINE TRAINING 2

The Department of Teaching and Learning Resources will begin offeringEagle Online for Faculty training workshops on April 26. Thetraining introduces the Learning Management System (LMS) adopted by HCCto replace Blackboard Vista. The training is completely accessibleonline. However, for faculty who feel the need for aface-to-face overview of the LMS, we invite you to attend one of theoptional orientation sessions held Mondays at various locationsthroughout the HCC system. Please understand that due to limited staffing and a very high workloadlevel, the Department of TLR will offer orientations as TLR trainers areavailable, thus on a limited basis over the next few weeks. Theorientation is optional and is just an "overview" of what to expect inthe training. The actual training will occur in the online workshops.

Since everysession is the same, you only need to attend one session! Questionsand/or concerns may be submitted to the TLR staff at tlr.support@hccs.edu
